In 2014, Louisiana was the state with the highest rate of poverty in the United States, with 23.1% of its citizens living below the poverty threshold. By contrast, the state with the lowest poverty rate in the country was New Hampshire, with 7.2 % living below the poverty threshold.
The True US Poverty Rate Is 4.5%, Not 14.5%. The official US poverty number is 14.5%. Thatâs the percentage of the population that are below the official poverty line.
